Dr Chidi Okoroafor has
been confirmed the authentic general superintendent of Assemblies of God
Church.
Justices Paul Adamu
Galinje, Ejembi Eko, Kudirat Motonmori Olatokunbo Kekere-Ekun and Clara
Ogunbiyi, all ruled in favour of the church, delivering the judgement Friday,
February 24.
With the judgement, the court has affirmed the sack of Reverend
Paul Emeka.
Vicnuel recall
that Emeka was first suspended by the General Council of the church and was
later expelled and he approached the Enugu state High Court where he got a judgment
in his favour.
The church’s general council
appealed the judgment of the high court and won.
Not satisfied, Emeka
went to the supreme court to challenge the appeal court judgement with the
argument that his fundamental rights had been trampled on by the church.
He lost as the
justices unanimously upheld the ruling of the appellate court.
